Instructions
- In a bowl, season chicken strips with olive oil, garlic powder, minced garlic, paprika, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken for 6–8 minutes, stirring, until golden and fully cooked.
- Reduce heat to low, add Parmesan cheese, and toss chicken to coat evenly.
- Warm flour tortillas and layer each with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, and mozzarella cheese.
- Add garlic-Parmesan chicken on top, drizzle with ranch or garlic-Parmesan dressing if using.
- Fold into burritos, tucking in the sides, and roll tightly.
- Optional: Lightly toast burritos in a dry skillet for 2–3 minutes per side until golden and sealed.
- Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley.
Storage & Make-Ahead
- Wrap burritos individually in foil or parchment and refrigerate for up to 3 days.
- Freeze wrapped burritos for up to 1 month. Reheat in a skillet or oven until warmed through.
- Keep fillings and tortillas separate for meal prep to avoid soggy wraps.
